"They were probably shooting at each other," Heffernan said during a news conference.

Police said the gunfire erupted after a foot chase and assault involving two rival groups at the festival, according to WTOL 11.

Authorities said the shooting stemmed from a dispute between the groups.

Earlier this week, Lucas County Prosecutor Julia Bates vowed that "justice will be swift and strong."

"Those who were frightened, traumatized or harmed by this violence will remain at the forefront of our efforts," Bates said in a statement. "I’ve felt outrage before, but this is personal. This is my home. These are my friends and neighbors. It is not OK."
